Hi Moonbeing! Welcome to the boards and nice to meet you. I am sorry things are so quiet here these days. By the way, you have a beautiful moniker.

Thank you for the recommendation. I always love to read books about relationships, etc. I'm currently reading "Manic" by Terri Cheney. I've finished the prequel to this book about her childhood.

I’m not sure how old you are, but they can help you with research techniques, so you can utilise better ways of finding the info, especially via journals, you are seeking.Read More...
